Numerous type-2 defuzzification methods were implemented and judged against each other. A comparative analysis with the conventional Type-1 Fuzzy Logic Proportional-Integral Controller (T1FLPIC) and a PID controller demonstrates that the T2FLPIC has much improved performance than the T1FLPIC and the PID controller. This improvement is evident when it comes to handling of system disturbances and noise. {\^A}{\copyright} 2013 West Pomeranian University of Technology.}, url = {https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84893468022&doi=10.1109\%2fmmar.2013.6669886&partnerID=40&md5=9855e559caac9fecd71d47b3c9319d78}, keywords = {Computer circuits; Controllers; DC motors; Electric control equipment; Fuzzy logic; Proportional control systems; Real time control; Robotics; Servomotors; Three term control systems; Two term control systems, Comparative analysis; Defuzzification method; PID controllers; Proportional integral controllers; Real-time implementations; System disturbances; Type-2 fuzzy logic; Type-2 fuzzy logic controllers, Electric machine control}, isbn = {9781467355063}, author = {Fayek, H.
